1. Collect Byproduct
Where some people see byproduct that should be sent to landfill or be burned, we see a material that can create beauty. By keeping the byproduct from anaerobically digesting or being burned, we are keeping greenhouse emissions from entering the atmosphere. Whether its hemp, cannabis, or other plant left-overs, we can use it, rather than forest products.
2. Add Pressure
Once we have the hemp stalk, we use a hydraulic press to create the material for the tabletop. This material is holding carbon-dioxiode from the air and if it decomposes or is burned, it would release that carbon into the air. And all our material is made with renewable energy.
3. Preserve Forests
Now we have a material stronger than wood that doesnโt require killing any trees. We add the legs and tah-dah! A CO2-negative table made from California agricultural byproduct. For shipment, the legs are flat packed into a box and carbon offsets are purchased to cover transportation.
